I want to give them the benefit of the doubt because of Covid. We have emailed multiple times trying to sort out a down pipe that is not correct. I would love to fix this with the company as I hear great things but the customer service is not up to par. My 17 year old works at a fast food restaurant very hard and he saved to buy this with a little help from us. We are all quite disappointed. read more

I'm from the Bay Area and we don't have many tuners that can unlock BMW/Mini DME's. I took a trip down to LA and made sure to stop by here. Justin took care of me and did a great job unlocking my DME. I can't wait till I'm back in the Bay to finally flash a tune. I highly recommend this place for you to bring your BMW or Mini. read more

Had questions that were answered immediately. Delivery was made before the estimated time. Thanks. Albert A. read more

Don't expect fast shipping or communication from this company. They seem to be a hit or miss. Ordered parts for a customer on their website, tried to contact them 5 times with only getting one response. The online chat no one actually answers. After several attempts at communicating with them and no luck, ordered the part from elsewhere. read more

This place is hands-down the best place on the planet I called I spoke to Justin he gave me all the prices he gave me all his suggestions everything was exactly like you said everything came in fast and my appointment was perfect they were informative and helpful and this is the best place even with Covid there were no delays. Whether you drive a base model BMW or the top in Ferrari or a Rolls-Royce this is the place to go to. read more

I'm notoriously picky when it comes to my cars and motorcycles... I have my one shop I will never detract from for my motorcycles, and Auto Talent is the one shop I will always go to in regards to my four wheeled vehicles... Just a bunch of great guys, in every aspect... Not only do they get me the cheapest pricing on parts, they will always find a way to accommodate (i'm sure within reasonable request parameters, people !! ) the customer... They've had just done work for the newest car and will continue to do so... You want honest and upstanding guys, this is the place to go to... How many shops do you know that will suggest you hold off on some purchase and enjoy the new car for awhile, break it in and then spend more money on their business?? Auto Talent is that type of place... If you love your car, give them a call... Sam's just an upstanding citizen as are the people he has working for him... In the meantime though, ask for Golan, i've been working with him directly for years, even before his time at A.T... Car enthusiast and all around great guy... He might be able to be bribed with Chipotle, FYI... read more

So disappointing! AVOID buying from them! kept my car in the garage for 6 weeks for nothing! so unprofessional! almost no management system and customer support! after placing your order and finishing the payment, you will receive one short email that sorry this item is not available! if you are ok it takes 6 weeks to be delivered! after you confirm it, they will not answer any of your emails( almost 5-6 emails) and after waiting for 6 weeks and not receiving any emails, when you call them they will tell you sorry we had an issue with your payment! sorry, you had 6 weeks to inform your customer !!!!! when you don't have proper management and resources please don't waste people's time and money with your so-called online shop! read more

I bought my bmw X4 grill. Extremely good quality with quick shipping. I will for sure recommend them for any bmw mods.

Attention potential customers: They don't care about being loyal to you as a customer. The first time I came here I was sold on a different exhaust by Golan after buying one that I wanted on eBay. I trusted him since he knew what he seemed to know what he was talking about. That was my first interaction with Golan. He ended up having some personal issues but never replied to my emails stating he had been having personal issues. My exhaust ended up not fitting on my car until Mike stepped in and helped me through the process. If you're going to deal with this shop I'd suggest you deal with anyone here other than Golan. Recently I ordered a set of wheels which they promised me a discount on because it took two months for them to finish my exhaust last time. They texted me on Friday and I forgot to text back, and then today (Tuesday) I get an aggressive series of texts from Golan essentially insinuating that I had no money and they should have charged me half down for the wheels. After a back and forth with him I eventually got tired of his attitude and told him to just refund the wheels if it meant I had to deal with him. Just to clarify, this shop did a good job on my exhaust after it was plagued with a bunch of issue, but I never once had any good interactions with Golan. If you really want to use this shop I'd recommend speaking to anyone else with an ounce of professionalism. They do not seem to care about repeat business. read more

Auto Talent - Auto Repair Near Me - Gardena, California

Highly recommended euro specialist. Golan and the team at AT took care of any issue and addressed any concern I had. I had my M3 in for a rod bearing service, which is an extremely specialized repair on the bottom end of the motor. Because of this I had many questions, as I had never had an extensive repair such as this. Golan went above and beyond to answer each one promptly, kept me informed on progress and the price was extremely competitive. Golan took the time to show me around the shop, which is packed with an incredible array of car, from tuned bmws, skylines to Porsche's and Lamborghini's. A very professional shop that I'd recommend for anything from basic maintenance to performance mods, they'll take care of you. read more

Worst experience ever... Literally never received my order. Contacted them 15 times, never heard back at all. Now I'm getting an email asking if I'm happy with my order, and asking me to be kind enough to leave a review. Well... Here it is! Terrible company, completely void of customer service. If you have to spend more money somewhere else, you'll save money in the end by going with their competition. read more

Beware l!!! Dealing with Golan. Very unprofessional. This kid had the nerve to take it upon himself And cancel my order. He has a real problem with the customer service. Also has no respect for the customer. Maybe if I was spending thousands inStead of hundreds I would've I got a little more respect. Beware placing orders with auto talent, They have has NO talent when I comes to the customer. read more

I ordered a set of 22" wheels for my porsche, and waited 29!!! weeks before i got them. And after arrival, one wheel had paint damage due to poor securing of the wheels. And after a written promise about a new wheel, they have now stopped aswering my emails. This is several month ago. STAY AWAY read more

Auto Talent has provided me access to top name and quality parts at very competitive prices. Have purchase an AWE exhaust for my VW Alltrack and the price was the best on the internet by a significant margin. Going to be 30 days to get the part from manufacture AWE so hopefully it won't be delayed and will drive in good condition. So far I can recommend Auto Talent for your aftermarket performance part needs. DRM read more

Top to bottom I received white glove service. My son is just starting to drive and I got him his first car. Part of the fun has been making the car his own with some custom mods. I reached out to Golan and told him I was looking for the best exhaust for a g20 BMW 330i M Sport. He recommended the FI Exhaust. He was very engaged and wanted this to be a great experience for both me and my son. He gave me a great price and managed the order from start to finish. Very good with communication. When the exhaust arrived my son and I took his car to their shop in Gardena and Matt and Sam took good care of us. Their techs are top notch. They got right on the job and finished in about two hours. Perfect installation. They even help cut the original exhaust so we could take it home in our car. My experience with these guys was exceptional. I've been modding cars for the last 30 years and I like to give credit when it is earned. Auto Talent earned my recommendation. Thank you to Golan, Matt, Sam and the techs! read more

Matt and team were fantastic. Gave me peace of mind to get home to the bay when an emissions code threw

I would love to give my review I purchased on December 2 2020 but I'm still waiting for my new fi exhaust order # 6580 ... !!!

If I could give this place a zero and give them a zero or a negative 5 I usually try to give places the benefit of the doubt especially people that are extremely pretentious based off their work environment. Which usually it seems like anything auto fixing or tuning shops tend to be that way. I let the guy named Justin know beforehand that I know nothing about cars and I was hoping that he would be nice and actually accommodate and not be a complete prick. The first thing he does is basically tell me he doesn't have time to even talk to me. Then says I'll text you my number and then doesn't text back so I said OK not a big deal but I just wanted to check to see if you know he's busy or or maybe forgot and if that was the case then I would just call back tomorrow or even Head there in person. I just texted simply a couple words "Hey just wanted to follow up". I never ever met anyone who is ever made such a big deal about texting about a follow up. He goes on to say I am still busy I will get back to you when I'm free. I politely say oh my bad I didn't know if you had forgot or if you had close the shop. His response then was extremely was extremely smart ass and condescending he says if I was closed why would you still follow up. My answer was I was mainly checking to see if you were going to respond or not, because if you didn't then I would've assumed you either were extremely busy or you forgot which isn't a big deal at all. He goes on to say we don't do any of the services that you just ask for which is cool. But I don't understand maybe he's having a bad day but his answer was why would this is my personal cell and I've told you this a couple times which is totally untrue he did not tell me that this was his personal cell couple times either way if you want bad customer service don't deal with this guy Justin he's a prick just like all the auto tune of shop guys to think they're so cool and think they know so much even when you go into the store telling them that you literally know nothing and that he would love to get some help and learn I thought there was still some good people out there but apparently I guess there isn't people are just having bad days and take it out on people who are being very calm and nice so I blocked his number and I will never ever go to that shop again and I will always promote to anybody who wants to get to knobs or modifications to never go to that store or interact with a guy name Justin read more

Not happy at all paid almost 400 dollars for downpipes and waited a month for them to be delivered to a whole different state! then i call they tell me someone is gonna call me and still waiting...... read more

Tucked in a 5000sq ft building just a stone's throw away from Ikea, this is a gem for car enthusiasts from SFV, to West LA, South Bay and OC. I have known Sam (owner) and Zolti (master tech) for about a decade now. They used to work out of half a shop on Sepulveda in West LA and today, they have a huge place to call their own. I have literally witnessed how they evolved. They have also hired a number of good folks (Steven in sales, Danny in tech etc) to help them out. Quality work without costing an arm and leg. They will work on ANY car and marque, from Lamborghini to Smart car, and from rebuilding an engine to car detailing, they can do it all. It's not a shop with designer's furniture or huge LCD TV screens in the waiting area because frankly, they don't need that. read more

Had a car tuned by another shop that was horrific but thanks to auto talent, they helped me fix my car and got it to run right. Matt was great in helping me with the technical issues. The tuners and staff were great at explaining everything. They are genuinely nice and I would definitely come back. #1 shop for tuning! read more

Auto Talent had my F80 M3 Top Mount Intercooler In stock and was able to deliver with in the time frame promised. I had initially ordered the part through a different vendor and after processing the order they sent me an email 2 days later saying my package was delayed by two months. Auto Talent delivered and provided great customer service in the process. read more

Got an oil change done and a brake fluid flush and front/rear brake pad change the following day. Turned out I didn't need the new brake pads. Overall, very happy with the service, the entire staff, and especially Matt for he was extremely helpful in answering the numerous questions I had. Would definitely recommend going there for your automotive care read more

I am very disappointed, I ordered a part that was in stock, on the email they sent me it says it should take 24-48 hours to send tracking info. It's been 2 weeks and I still haven't heard back. I called customer service multiple times and emailed. But have heard nothing. read more

Auto Talent took care of everything! Coilover adjustment and downpipes for my BMW. They were professional, fast and the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend them for any performance work or maintenance! read more

I have been working with Golan for over 10 years. He is a true gentleman. Not only does he give you the best service, but the BEST advice. If it wasn't for him, I would be stranded on the side of the freeway with no transmission. I contacted Auto Talent when I was traveling to Phoenix, Arizona from Los Angeles. My car broke down and I was stranded. I searched on Yelp and found Auto Talent. When I called I was greeted by someone named Golan. He understood my situation and offered to help. GOLAN is a scientist of motor vehicles. If you tell him what you need or what problem you have it will be diagnosed and solved within minutes of speaking to him: Thank you so much!!!! read more

Excellent quality, look great (not over the top Lambo style crap). Well packaged, which made me feel better about spending 400.00 for the carbon paddles. The install is kind of nerve racking with the whole removing the air bag thing, but doable. The control position is so much better from the sweet spot on the steering wheel! Highly recommend this upgrade. read more

I am writing this to thank everyone at Auto Talent. The level of professionalism, curteousnes, and friendliness shown by everyone there is by far better than any place I've taken any vehicle to. On a technical level they are knowledgeable and efficient, and have the resources to accomidate a huge work load. This shows by the volume of high end vehicles they work on. The place looks like a car show. A special thank you to Sam and Golan. They made me feel comfortable from the first call thru the moment I left their shop. I am super happy with my suspension. I cant thank you enough. read more

I stopped in about a week ago, and Justin got my seats and exhaust swapped out in less than 24 hours with less than two days' notice. Great work, nice guys, fair price, and I can't wait to bring my next car in for work. read more

great work done on my spoiler very happy customer highly recommend this place is awsome

I revived my parts in perfect condition and was very satisfied. There was a delay in my shipping but I would expect that during this time of year. read more

This place is horrible. I ended up buying a dinan tune for my 18 c63...I decided to go with a flash instead so I wanted to return it. Long story short every time I talk with them on the phone their extremely rude and act like their shit don't stink. I ended up bringing the item back in person and they weren't able to refund my card bc of a quickbooks problem...this was on a Friday. I had Golan send me an email stating they received the item (for my protection) since the card wasn't refunded that day. Golan told me He would call me on Friday and try to refund the card since it wasn't working that day. Waited on Monday I didn't get a call I then waited on Tuesday still didn't get a call on Wednesday I ended up initiating the phone call to them but Golan was busy and I was told he'd call me right back...of course he didn't call me. I ended up calling him again and Thursday same thing happens finally I called again on Friday saying hey if I don't get a call I'm going to dispute the charges with the bank and of course right after that.. I get a call. Golan told me that he refunded my credit card and I should see it back on my account within 2 to 3 business days. A week goes by still nothing in my account two weeks go by...still nothing credited to my account and now it's a month and I still didn't get the refund. I Ended up calling my credit card company to dispute the charges and of course he acted surprised..."what did I do wrong? I've been nothing but honest and I refunded you" yah...bullshit ya kook. I will never ever go back to this place they act entitled they don't know how to run a business and they don't know shit about customer service I've got a business with over 70 employees. Im busy as hell and they've got a 4 company business and Golan can't even call someone back. This place blows. read more

This business has the absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced. I purchased a diffuser which was real carbon fiber, and not inexpensive by any means. Once installed on my M5, both outer edges of the diffuser were unfinished and exposed, leaving a rough and dull surface of the diffuser visible. After contacting Auto Talent, I was told the manufacturer did not want to return the product because they hadn't had any previous complaints. Golan then told me they are just a "middle dealer" and they are not responsible. This company is a sham and they do not stand behind their own return policy. I am stuck with a $500.00 piece of junk that I would never leave on my M5. read more

Golan at AutoTalent was great at helping me with my order. The entire process was very smooth and extremely professional. It was also a very fast process. Very accommodating and attentive at answering my questions and following up on my requests. I would highly recommend this company. My exhaust came very well packaged and in perfect condition. Great experience...high recommend! read more

Came here based on a recommendation of a friend. I'm glad I came here. I had them install some BC coil overs and they are great! They went above and beyond to help me out. They were super patient and gave me answers to all my questions. There was also follow up on how things were going with my new suspension. Would definitely recommend these guys. Customer service is on point! read more

WARNING: any potential future customers to Auto Talent in Carson, CA. After lying about the amount of time for parts, having my car for over 2 months, quoting me on work and then up charging me after the fact, they still refuse to reimburse me money they promised to pay after they killed a properly working battery in the car (not to mention not starting the car for over 2 months and the engine not running properly when I picked up the car) It has taken Sam over 2 months to send me a check. This is followed by numerous calls that a customer shouldn't have to make after the company screwed up numerous times. Today Sam told me to go fuck myself, stop bitching about this, and hung up on me after telling me he sent my check out on Monday 11/30. This is extremely inappropriate behavior from any business owner and when a customer calls especially when they have been screwing up time and time again. NEVER use this place for anything. read more

Ordered a part for my car. It was mislabeled as fitting my car, which, of course it didn't. After 3 emails and 2 phone calls, am getting blown off. They keep telling me we have to hear back from the manufacturer? Why? The manufacturer didn't mislabel it - you did. Keep in mind, it was $110 trim piece. If their customer service is this bad for that small of a part, I wonder how it is for more expensive parts. read more

Very easy order processing and a nice bonus to have an exhaust component shipped for free. On top of that, Auto Talent had the best price and very easy order integration with Google. read more

Bought a steering Wheel trim piece and product arrived quickly and quality is great. will be buying more carbon pieces from here
